The continuing saga of “Will he or won’t he?” in regards to Cam Newton’s status with the Panthers in 2020 wrote another chapter Tuesday when team owner David Tepper spoke with the media about Newton’s health and future in Carolina.
“It’s a question of how healthy his foot is and otherwise. That’s still the number one overwhemling thing, to see how healthy he is and how we can figure out when he’s healthy or not and everything comes from that,” Tepper said to the media.
Tepper was also asked about teams inquiring about a trade for Newton and joked about his wife handling the calls. Obviously, Tepper cannot say anything on that front because that would be tampering with the league year not set to start for another month.
Here’s the full audio from Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.
